Did you do an interview? I got an unsolicited fee waiver email the day after I interviewed.

No I did not. Vandy wasnt on my radar until recently. I wish I understood earlier how good a school it was. I believe it is now to late to request an interview.

I'm using today as my last day to dream of a Vandy acceptance, but I'm assuming WL/ding. It seems like they admit a lot early, then send out a tsunami of WLs in late january/February. My interviewer more-or-less confirmed this, he said don't get too upset by a WL, since Vandy tends to send out more than most peer schools. I think this is their way of gaming the USNEWS rankings... Accept everyone they expect to attend, see who matriculates then start pulling up people at median or below/splitters.

I feel like there could be an LSAT question to be crafted from this logic... Although you may very well be right, not really sure how the USPS works. Don't think this would follow for FedEX.

I regularly send mail between here and Tennessee. Before, if a letter were mailed from the same location in Tennessee to my apartment, it would take two days. When I moved here, it mysteriously started taking 3. My subscription to the Economist also gets here a day later. I think my logic is sound.

(And we were talking about for WL/Ding letters. My decision hasn't been mailed, but I highly doubt I'll be getting anything from FedEx)

Vanderbilt contacted me after asking for a fee waiver telling me to forward my LSAT score report and Academic Summary report. When they receive those, then they will consider my request. Are they basically asking me to submit my application? How else could I forward those reports?

Save the pdf documents and email them. Let me know if you need help with it.

If my DLS was 1/24/13 and I don't get it today I should assume I'm not getting in?
